I'm 6500 words into the steampunk werewolf western, and it has come to a screeching halt. I thought I had a place for this scene to go, and I neglected to write it down, and it is gone like the proverbial wind.

Let this be a lesson to you. If you don't write it down, it never happened.

I did get to introduce my good-guy preacher dude in my last spate of writing, so that's cool. I'm going to be That Werewolf Writer Who Also Writes Religious People As Heroes, Sometimes In The Same Story. Do I care? No, I think that would be awesome, actually. The "religious figure as bad guy" trope is overdone and old, and I will buck against it every chance I get.

Still no news on won his soul or hitman!Ben. Pins and needles. I am on them. No news is good news, I guess. I get a sinking feeling every time I get that "INCOMING MESSAGE" .wav from gmail. Maybe I'll find a .wav that just says "INCOMING!" and change it to that.

Also, the damn election cannot come soon enough. We've already donated a ridiculous amount. You can't have anymore. Stop friggin' calling me. Especially stop with the gorram robocalls. You don't make any friends with those, people, and the sooner you learn that lesson, the better off everyone will be. GOD.

The "religious figure as bad guy" is so boring and overdone. And irritating. How many preachers have really been in the new for being serial killers? When a religious person is shown on screen in one of my husband's TV shows, I automatically tell him that he/she is the murderer. And I'm always right. Yawn.

Oh, my word--the freaking robocall we've been receiving for the last three weeks sounds like a used car salesman on a meth-and-caffeine overdose. So incredibly irritating. And he is yelling throughout the call. It makes me wonder if the opposing party is really behind those calls! Who thinks sicking a hyperactive infomercial broadcaster on people is going to sway them to give money or vote a certain way? I am so ready for this election to be over.

IT'S NOT JUST ME. #conspiracytheory

Also, more teachers have been convicted of child molestation than preachers. But teachers are apparently Untouchable. Or something. How come they're never the bad guy?

(This is me, btw. Just too lazy to log in under my "real" name.)
